Looks neat. Have you seen helm-imenu? It doesn't seem to parse
definitions as well as your lispy-local-goto but it's got a nice way
of grouping definitions by kind. (Variables, Types, Defuns, etc...)

That's interesting. It's not very common, given Lisp's image-based
introspection philisophy, but I can see the usefulness of being able
to browse code without a live image. Is there a way to make it parse
subdirectories as well?
It'd be interesting to try and implement helm-backed alternatives for
SLIME's apropos and xref facilities.
Cheers,
